(b) The complex number w is defined by w = 2e 4 . In an Argand diagram, the points A, B and
C represent the complex numbers w, w3 and w* respectively (where w* denotes the complex
conjugate of w). Draw the Argand diagram showing the points A, B and C, and calculate the
area of triangle ABC.

dx
is such that y = 2 when x = 0. The diagram shows a sketch of the graph of this solution for 0 x 20;
the graph has stationary points at A and B. Find the y-coordinates of A and B, giving each coordinate
correct to 1 decimal place.
